Abstract

A wirelessly deployable, electronic prescription creation system for physician use captures into a prescription a patient condition-objective of the prescribed treatment and provides for patient record assembly from source elements, with privacy controls for patient and doctor, adverse indication review and online access to comprehensive drug information including scientific literature. Extensions to novel multi-drug packages and dispensing devices, and an “intelligent network” remote data retrieval architecture as well as onscreen physician-to-pharmacy and physician-to-physician e-mail are also provided.

Claims

1. A method for aggregating electronic prescription data, comprising the steps of:

electronically storing at least a first patient record including at least one prescribed drug selected from a list of drugs approved by a drugs benefit provider and a prescriber identifier representing the user that selected the at least one prescribed drug;

electronically storing at least a second patient record including at least one prescribed drug selected from a list of drugs approved by a drugs benefit provider and a prescriber identifier representing the user that selected the at least one prescribed drug;

aggregating data from the at least a first patient record with data from the at least a second data patient record to form an aggregated data record; and

outputting the aggregated data record.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein:

each of the at least a first patient record and the at least a second patient record additionally includes at least one patient condition associated with the at least one prescribed drug selected from a list and at least one prescriber identifier representing the user that selected the at least one prescribed drug; and

the aggregated data record includes at least a selected drug, its associated patient condition and its associated prescriber identifier for each patient data record.

3. The method of claim 1, further including the steps of:

sorting the aggregated data by prescriber identifier; and

outputting data resulting from the sorting step as a report.

4. The method of claim 1, further including the steps of:

sorting the aggregated data by patient; and

outputting data resulting from the sorting step as a report.

5. The method of claim 1, further including the step of selling information derived from the aggregated data.
